Chapter 1201 I Want to Do It
"..."
Zhou Ziyu was just about to say hello to her mother when she was immediately stumped by a question that her mother blurted out.
What do you mean, why am I back?
She was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and was struck by lightning.
She immediately knew what her mother was thinking... She felt a strong sense of shame in her heart, as if she had done something bad and was caught.
She had never revealed such thoughts to her mother, and she didn't say she wouldn't come to dinner when she called just now... She thought she had kept her little thoughts hidden well.
She didn't expect that everything was seen through... She felt ashamed when she thought that her mother seemed to have anticipated the intimate actions between her and Chi Jingyuan in the car just now.
Moreover, after realizing this, Zhou Ziyu felt somewhat dissatisfied.
So, mom, you knew that I wanted to be with him today and didn't plan to come back?
Why didn't you stop me? Why didn't you urge me to come back quickly?
Although I really don't want to come back, but...
It’s okay for me to think this way, but it’s not okay for you, mom!
Various emotions flashed through Zhou Ziyu's mind in a short period of time. She felt sullen and abandoned. She and her mother exchanged a complicated look and responded in a low voice without expressing any plot content.
Then he walked to the table, looked around to find his seat, sat down and greeted other relatives.
"We've almost finished eating."
Mother Zhou saw through her daughter's thoughts at a glance, and realized that her conditioned reflex might have exposed her true thoughts, but it was not convenient to say anything at this time. She walked back and looked at the food on the table, and quickly gave instructions: "Call the waiter and order a few more dishes... Baby, what do you want to eat?"
Soon the food came back. Zhou Ziyu was actually very hungry, so she didn't hesitate and started eating right away.
But the other relatives who were eating similar meals naturally turned their attention to her.
"Tzuyu went out with her friends today. How was her time?" Second Aunt looked at Zhou Ziyu who was eating in an orderly manner with a kind face and asked curiously.
"Well, a friend came to see me today."
Zhou Ziyu chewed the food quickly twice and swallowed it, then apologized embarrassedly: "I'm sorry I didn't go with you guys today..."
"oops……"
But the second aunt just waved her hand to interrupt her, saying nonchalantly: "Young people of course have their own things to do, and didn't we all have dinner yesterday... Today your mother took us to the mall for a long time and bought a lot of things."
"...But you came back so late, you haven't eaten yet?"
"Yeah." Zhou Ziyu nodded gently and licked the oil on her lips: "Because we went out of town today, to Gyeonggi Province, not Seoul, we didn't come back very fast, so we were a little late."
"Oh, out of town, that's what I thought."
"Tzuyu? Are you with your boyfriend?" At this time, the elder sister next to her interrupted and asked curiously.
"No way... we are just good friends together."
Zhou Ziyu smiled shyly but didn't say much.
Although my sister asked in a questioning tone, her eyes seemed to reveal the answer.
Moreover, whether it was Zhou Yuhao next to her or the sisters opposite her, they were all looking at Zhou Ziyu with suspicious eyes.
But Zhou Ziyu remained calm and not panicked.
Although she did have some experience...but Chi Jingyuan did have experience. He just reminded her to tidy up her clothes and hair. Before getting off the car, the annoying guy even checked it again personally.
Although the lips were a little swollen, it has subsided a lot and is not noticeable at all.
As for some other places.
...The clothes are covering it, so you can’t see it!
………………
After returning to the hotel, they chatted with other relatives for a while. After Zhou Yuhao was driven away, only mother and daughter were left in the room. Mother Zhou looked at Zhou Ziyu who was in a daze and seemed to be thinking about something, and sat down next to her:
"You're still thinking about me now that you're back? Are you really that reluctant to leave? We've been together for a whole day~"
She knew what Zhou Ziyu was thinking at a glance, and suddenly she felt jealous. She said unhappily, "It was the same thing this morning. You said you were going to get a gift, but why did you rush out when someone called you? You didn't even tell your mom when she didn't call you? And you lied to me and said you were going to get a gift?"
"You've really grown up~" At the end, she sighed deeply, looking like a girl who is no longer under the control of her mother.
"How can there be..."
Zhou Ziyu, who was daydreaming about her first kiss in the car, was suddenly awakened by a voice. She looked at her mother and said insincerely, "I didn't know he was coming at first... and didn't he tell you later~"
"Ugh."
Mother Zhou sighed again: "And aren't you dating Jingyuan already? I remember the last time I called you and asked you about it, you said no, you're lying!... What's there to hide? Mom knew this would happen a long time ago."
"How can we be in a relationship? I didn't lie to you."
The more Zhou Ziyu listened, the more anxious she felt: "How did you know this a long time ago? I didn't even know it myself~"
"I don't know you yet?"
Mother Zhou snorted and said with some reminiscence: "The first time I heard you talk about Jingyuan, the first time I came to Seoul to invite him to dinner, when I saw you like that, I had expected it."
"How can it be so obvious?"
Not wanting to pay attention to her daughter who was still talking nonsense, Zhou's mother kindly helped Zhou Ziyu to tidy up her hair, pushed the few bangs that hung down to the back of her head, and then asked curiously in a gentle voice: "Tell me, what did you do with Jingyuan today? You walked for a whole day... Didn't you know he was going to come to see you today?"
"really do not know."
Zhou Ziyu enjoyed her mother's touch very much, and entered the mother-daughter chat mode, talking about various things today: "Because of his schedule, he went to Neon a few days ago, and his work schedule was very full, so he said before that he couldn't come, and asked his assistant to bring a gift back to me today, so I said I was going to get a gift this morning..."
“But as soon as I went down… I actually saw him!”
Zhou Ziyu is still touched when she thinks of the surprise that filled her heart that morning.
"Jingyuan is very busy. I often see their news in Tainan... So he took time out to rush back overnight?" Mother Zhou raised her eyebrows.
"Well, he brought the work forward. He was busy all night last night and rushed back on the plane."
Zhou Ziyu nodded slightly, the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, and the sweetness in her tone made Zhou's mother frown... but she also felt a little sad in her heart.
"After we met, of course I couldn't just leave~ Then he asked me if it was my birthday today and anything about my zodiac sign..."
First she said it as a matter of course, and today's extremely deep and warm memories and pictures emerged in front of her eyes. Zhou Ziyu took the opportunity to tell her mother about her experience today in detail with a slightly boastful tone.
Mother Zhou, who was originally just curious and calm, was stunned after hearing what she said. She didn't know when her eyes widened. Looking at her daughter who was beaming with joy, her heart was filled with a gust of wind.
When Zhou Ziyu finished talking about the exciting part, she asked in disbelief, "You mean, you said you wanted to volunteer at a stray dog shelter, and then he specially contacted the place, exempted you from all the formalities and registration, arranged everything directly, and went with you? And he really volunteered with you for a whole day and was exhausted?"
"Hmm~"
'I remember you told me that Jingyuan doesn't like dogs, right?'
"I really don't like it very much. He often says that dogs smell bad, shed hair, and are troublesome... But, today is my birthday~"
Zhou Ziyu nodded vigorously. She could feel her mother's shock and surprise, and instantly felt a strong sense of pride in her heart. The little pride in her dimples could no longer be concealed.
"Ah..., Jingyuan really dotes on you."
Looking at her daughter who couldn't hide her joy at all, Mother Zhou couldn't help but sigh.
If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine... but Chi Jingyuan is not an ordinary person. His career is extremely successful. Not only is he a big star, but his family background is also hard to match.
Even though he was very busy at work, he still rushed back overnight. Even though he didn't like dogs, he still went there despite himself. At the same time, he was not perfunctory, but really accompanied her with all his heart.
Such an outstanding person can actually do so much for his daughter... The favoritism and pampering are so excessive that even Zhou's mother herself feels that it is enviable.
This kind of thing, 'Even though I don't like it, I'm still willing to accompany you to do volunteer work on your birthday', sounds very romantic, just like in a TV drama.
And it was completely different from the sweet journey she had imagined. Zhou's mother originally thought that the two of them went somewhere to buy something and have some fun... But obviously, Zhou Ziyu's real story and experience today were much better. It was a very meaningful and profound birthday, something that could be remembered for a year, ten years, or even a lifetime.
No wonder... my daughter's heart is locked tightly. Apart from work, all her thoughts are on him. She has been locked up from the age of 13 to 18, and it seems that it will remain locked up forever.
Who wouldn’t be tempted by this?
"That you……"
Suppressing the sigh in her heart, Zhou's mother looked at Zhou Ziyu and asked again with a kind smile: "So, are you officially dating now?"
But Zhou Ziyu, who had a sweet face just now, couldn't help but frowned when she heard this question again: "No, didn't I just say it's not yet."
She seemed a little annoyed by the question and the answer, and didn't want to discuss too much with her mother. Seeing that her mother seemed to have more questions, she pouted and blocked her mother's words: "Oh, mom, don't ask... I have my own ideas... and my own plans."
"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore..."
Sensing her daughter's emotions, as well as the thoughts, decisions, or ambitions hidden within them, Zhou's mother quickly waved her hands and soothed her in a coaxing tone, saying that she would not ask any more questions.
She looked at her daughter who had grown up and seemed to have overcome that barrier and become much more mature in appearance, figure and psychology, and her heart was filled with pride.
Zhou Ziyu looks pure and cute, but sometimes she can be a little silly. On the surface, she seems to be a peace-loving person who can be bullied by anyone.
But... knowing Chou Tzuyu completely, she knew deeply that her daughter was much more persistent, strong, and ambitious than she appeared to be.
She had read some articles written by her daughter's fans on the Internet, and felt that a fan article she occasionally came across described Chou Tzu-yu very accurately.
Looking at her daughter's shy little face smiling calmly, Mother Zhou couldn't help but think of that description...
'Tzuyu is not some Yoda or some dog that doesn't fight or compete, she is a little wolf
He is a determined, brave, ambitious, persistent, stubborn, fragile, but unswerving little wolf.'
Although Zhou Ziyu was still chatting with her mother about her experiences today with a smile, she was actually thinking about other things in her heart.
Zhou's mother asked her twice whether she was in a relationship or not, and she did not lie both times, saying that she was not in a relationship either.
The reason why she avoided the question and didn't want to say anything was because she had her own plans and decisions in mind.
Even when she and Chi Jingyuan had their first intimate contact in the car, she wanted to give herself to him and follow him directly, but until he sent her back and said goodbye, she never asked about anything like "whether they were dating or not", never mentioned it at all.
She wasn't going to mention it either.
Over the years, Zhou Ziyu had seen countless women who had relationships with Chi Jingyuan and then quickly broke up with him, and countless "girlfriends" who quickly became strangers after the initial enthusiasm.
Like Mina from her own group, and also like Bae Joo Hyun who used to show off their affection every day on Music Bank...
She knew that if she said "dating", Chi Jingyuan would most likely agree.
But she would never talk about these things and would deliberately avoid them.
Zhou Ziyu really doesn't think the title of "girlfriend" is of any use now... She witnessed her groupmate Ming Jingnan go from the sweetness and show-off in the beginning of their love to the sadness and confusion in the end.
She knew Chi Jingyuan's personality and inner thoughts too well, and also knew some of his concepts and habits about relationships... The so-called "boyfriend or girlfriend" did not have any special meaning to him, but was instead a kind of bondage.
If it was really made so formal, it would hurt the special feelings and deep bond between her and Chi Jingyuan that was different from others.
Isn’t it good now? She doesn’t try to grab the position of girlfriend. She just stays by his side, just like before. She will always be the most special one around Chi Jingyuan.
...It's just that now they may be a little closer than before, but she doesn't mind it herself, and those girlfriends who come and go one after another should not mind it either.
As Chi Jingyuan gradually matures and changes, she will still be the person who has always been by his side, and some things will naturally come to fruition.
"Mina, thank you so much for your inspiration and example..."
Zhou Ziyu was listening to what Zhou's mother said, but her eyes were slightly out of focus. In a daze, her mind was like a revolving lantern, with all kinds of profound scenes and memories emerging from the time she and Chi Jingyuan met until now.
Finally, the picture freezes on the scene of the two of them walking the dog together at the shelter today, and the moment before in the car when she sat on him, the two of them were so close, their ears rubbing against each other's eyes.
Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips and smiled gently, but her eyes were full of calmness, as well as incomparable determination and persistence.
"…So I won't be his 'girlfriend'"
"I want to be...Mr. Chi's wife."
